Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this boutique hotel was a delightful experience! The property is set in a lovely pedestrian area that feels like a hidden gem, making it easy to explore nearby attractions without the hassle of traffic. The spacious suites we enjoyed came with their own kitchen and a cozy sitting area, which made our stay feel even more special. The breakfast selection was fabulous, and having a spa with a unique Roman bath was the cherry on top. While everything was mostly fantastic, I did notice a minor inconvenience with the sauna door not functioning, but the overall experience more than made up for that small issue.
Our stay at the hotel was wonderful, with a spacious and comfortable villa featuring a great view of the old city. The location was perfect for exploring the nearby attractions. We had some minor issues with bathroom maintenance and an underwhelming spa experience, but these did not overshadow the fantastic hospitality we received.
Our stay at this hotel was generally pleasant with beautiful facilities and a fantastic breakfast. While the initial impression was slightly marred by a small and dark room, the cleanliness and comfort of the accommodations made up for it. The staff was attentive and eager to help, but we experienced some inconveniences regarding room changes and access. Overall, it's a great spot for those wanting to explore the city with easy access to attractions.
My stay at this hotel had its ups and downs. The modern rooms were impressive, but we faced issues with heating and a shower that couldn’t seem to regulate its temperature. The breakfast was abundant, though the crowded space made it hard to enjoy. Overall, the warmth of the staff and the vibrant location were definite highlights, even if some aspects felt a bit lacking.
The hotel has its ups and downs. While the convenient location is a significant plus, the quality and misrepresentation of some rooms are concerning. The lack of assistance during check-in adds to the frustration, but the friendly and prompt service for certain issues does provide a balance. Overall, it didn't fully meet expectations given the price we paid.
